You must have missed this gem:

San Francisco bans Happy Meals - Los Angeles Times

There's no way I can find the video, but years back when a class action was gearing up targeted at fast food joints, this woman was interviewed that her son screams and cries if she doesn't take him to McDonalds and because of that they should be regulated.

And it's spot on. The uninsured will only become insured if they open their mail and get a national insurance card. Then they'll go on a medical shopping spree.

25 million without coverage
18,000 enrolled.

Contrast with Cash for Clunkers where 700,000 cars were sold during 8 weeks.

I still want to know if they have to abide by the MLR rules all the carriers do.

Nope, the plans are self funded and as such, exempt.
